_ _ _ _ _ Last night I went [C] to sleep in Detroit [F] City _ _ I _ [Dm] _ [C] _
dreamed about them cotton fields [F] and home
_ _ I _ [A#] dreamed about my mother, dear [F] old papa, sister and brother
And [G] I dreamed about the girl _ who's [C] been waiting far so long
I wanna [F] go home, _ _ _ I [A] wanna [A#] go _ _ _ home, _ [Gm] [F] oh, _ _ [C] I _ [A#] wanna [F] go _ _ home
[F#] _ _ _ [C] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ Home folks think [G] I'm big in Detroit [C] City _ From _ _ [Am] [G] the letters that I write they think I'm [C] fine
_ _ _ _ [E] But [F] by day I make cars, _ [C] by night I make the bars [D] If only they could read between the [G] _ _
lines
_ _ _ [C] _ _
Cause you know I rode a [G] freight train north to Detroit [C] City _ And _ _ _ [Am] _ [G] after all these years I find I've just been wasting [C] my time
So _ _ _ _ [F] I just think I'll take my foolish pride Put it [C] on a southbound freight and let it ride
_ [D] _ Going back to the loved ones, the [G] ones that I left waiting so far behind
I [C] wanna go home, _ _ I wanna [F] go _ home, _ _ _ _ [C] oh, _ [G] I _ wanna [C] go home
